I agree this is a day to remember those who lost their lives on that tragic day, and to remember the families and friends who have gone through so much heartbreak and pain over that time. However, I don't think that what PM_Mama did was at all offensive or wrong - she was just taking issue with a political cartoon.
Thank you, but I was actually nitpicking on the hypocrisy.

Jon- I didn't read any article or anything, didn't even read the whole thread. 9-11 is a VERY important day... more important to some than others. However, if this is such an important day for you and so sad, why are you on GC posting political cartoons? Why aren't you at one of the memorials or paying respect elsewhere? Just because someone posts a topic other than 9-11 today, it doesn't mean that person/people aren't thinking about it.

And if 9-11 isn't the day to "start" something, then I don't wana see any posts by you on irrelevant topics on Memorial Day, Easter, Christmas, 4th of July, All Saints Day, D-Day, April 20th, or any other day that is as important to others as this day is to you.

ETA: Ok I just looked at the cartoons, and saw a few respectful ones in the midst of dozens of political ones. Kinda childish and petty on a day that should be focused on remembering what happened and those who died/were injured, rather than pointing fingers and looking at political aspects.
